Six dogs pull a two-person sled with a total mass of 220 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow i

s 0.08. The sled accelerates from rest at 0.75 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 12 km/h. a) What is the work done by the dogs in the accelerating phase? b) What is the maximum power output by the dogs? c) What is the pulling force from the dogs (assumed to be horizontal)?

Answer:

a) 2457J

b) 558W

c) 337N

Explanation:

Assuming dogs started from rest.

v=a*t\\t=\frac{a}{v}\\v=12\frac{km}{h}\frac{1000m}{km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=3.3m/s\\\\t=\frac{3.3m/s}{0.75m/s^2}\\t=4.4s

and the displacement is given by:

d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=7.3m

Using the energy conservation formula:

K_i+U_i+W_d+W_f=K_f+U_f

Because the motion started from rest the initial kinetic energy is zero, the motion occurred in-ground level so the gravitational energy is zero too.

the work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d*cos(180)\\W_f=0.08*220kg*9.8m/s^2*7.3m*(-1)\\W_f=-1259J

so:

W_d=\frac{1}{2}*220kg*(3.3m/s)^2+1259J\\W_d=2457J

The power is given by:

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\\P=\frac{2457J}{4.4s}\\\\P=558W

and the force exerted by the dogs:

W_d=F_d*d*cos(\theta)\\F_d=\frac{W_d}{d*cos(0)}\\\\F=\frac{2457J}{7.3m*(1)}\\\\F=337N

A ship leaves the island of Guam and sails a distance 255 km at an angle 49.0 o north of west. Part A: In which direction must i
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in vector form .Consider east as x axes and north as Y axes west as - ve x axes and south as - ve Y axes . 255 km can be represented by the following vector

D₁ = - 255 cos 49 i  + 255 sin49 j

= - 167.29 i + 192.45 j

Let D₂ be the further displacement which lands him 125 km east . So the resultant displacement is

D = 125 i

So

D₁ + D₂ = D

- 167.29 i + 192.45 j + D₂ = 125 i

D₂ = 125 i + 167.29 i - 192.45 j

= 292.29 i - 192.45 j

Angle of D₂ with x axes θ

tan θ = -192.45 / 292.29

= - 0.658

θ = 33.33 south of east

Magnitude of D₂

D₂² = ( 192.45)² + ( 292.29)²

D₂ = 350 km approx

A Carnot air conditioner operates between an indoor temperature of 20°C and an outdoor temperature of 39°C. How much energy does
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

D. 130 J

Explanation:

The coefficient of performance for a machine that is being used to cool, is given by:

COP=\frac{Q_C}{W}=\frac{T_C}{T_H-T_C}

Here Q_C  is the heat removed from the cold reservoir, W is the work required, that is, the energy required to remove the heat from the interior of the house, T_C is the cold temperature and T_H is the hot temperature. Recall use absolutes temperatures(273.15+^\circ C). Replacing and solving for W:

W=Q_c\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}\\W=2000J\frac{312.15K-293.15K}{293.15K}\\W=129.63J
